Altogether there are some thirty members with Mrs. McCoy as advisor. Early in the year the club held its annual pot- luck dinner which was well attended and enjoyed by all. During the spring semester our activities in- cluded the Spanish Assembly Program on Marcli 31, a number in the Colus Show April 14, anclithe an- nual Spanish Fiesta on April Zl. Tlwe entire cluh took part in the assembly ol Nlarch 31, in which a Spanish play, En el Me it carlo fln the Nlarket Place, was given. The play centered around a street scene in which EI Senor Ricardo Ramos and the members of his traveling circus performed their act to an appreciative audi enfe on the stage, composed of the other members of the Spanish Club. A variation of this same rlwcme was successfully used for the number in the Colus Show. The Spanish Fiesta brought to a close the Span- ish Club activities for the year. The club mem- Lers worked hard to make it a success and their ei forts were rewarded by a very good attendance. The decoration theme was in keeping with the Spanish- American spirit as shown by the brightly colored cascarones filled with confetti and the walls cov- ered with Nlexican scenes. During the year some of the members have written to boys a.nd girls in foreign countries who speak Spanish. Their addresses were secured through the offices of the International Students' Society. Some of the letters received have proven to he most interesting, telling of the customs and habits of these people and also their school life. Altogether, the Spanish Club has had an interest- ing and profitable year. BOB FARNSWORTPI
